We discuss the various sustainability initiatives of the property (including the forest in the lobby that acts as a carbon sink and air purification system), how to train and work with a sustainability team to promote more innovation, how to create measurable impact, and what the future holds for general managers looking to improve the sustainability standing of their properties.
